"Suga-san! Wait up for us!" Noya cried as he and Tanaka were running to catch up with me. "Oh, Noya, Tanaka. "Did Daichi send you to help me on today's raid?" Suga asked as he spotted the two carrying bags with them. "Yup! He also said that we're low on soap, so we need to keep an eye out for some." Tanaka said quickly. "So today's raid: Soap and more food?" Suga asked, turning to the two males behind him. "Hai! Daichi-san said don't go out too far." Noya added.
"Okay, lets get to it!" Suga pumped
"Yosh!" Tanaka and Noya shouted as they began their journey.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Ahhhh, we finally found some soap! Now I won't smell like piss and dead bodies!" Tanaka shouted as he was stuffing the bars of soap he found into his backpack. "Tanaka, don't be so crude! The world may be ending but that doesn't give you the right to act a fool." Suga scolded, a small frown forming on his lips. "Gomen, Suga-san." Tanaka apologized, bowing his head slightly. "Don't worry about it, let's just hurry back so I can start cooking dinner." Suga sighed as he started to walk. "Hai!" the two second-years bubbled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The walk back to the gym seemed to go a lot slower than usual. It was as if time was slowed down.
"Suga-san, are you okay? You seemed a little dazed." Tanaka asked, worry underlying his voice. "A-Ah? Oh, I'm fine, just thinking about everything." Suga stuttered.
Then suddenly, something caught Suga's eye, a fluff of orange sticking out of the pile of large rubble that used to be a building. "Tanaka, Noya, stop right quick." Suga said, walking towards the orange fluff. "Suga-san? What's wrong?" Noya questioned curiously. "I think someone's stuck under this rubble, give me a hand." Suga commanded. "Hai!" Tanaka shouted.
As they slowly removed the rubble, the person became visible. The three of them staring in horror and terror, at the familiar face.
"Hinata?!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As his eyes fluttered open, he took in his surroundings. "Why does this place look so familiar?" Hinata mumbled softly as he sat up. He had felt like he was boxed in, as the curtain that was up was all along the perimeter of the bed. He slowly rose to his feet and walked over in front of the curtain before sliding it open.
Daichi....Suga....Asahi.....Noya....Tanaka....Tsukishima.....Yamaguchi......Kageyama....
They're all here, they survived...
"Hinata, you're awake!!" Suga gasped as he ran over to the orange-haired boy.
They're okay.....they're here with me....
"Hinata, are you okay?" Noya asked as he put a reassuring hand on the first-years shoulder.
.......They're here, with me.....
Suddenly, Hinata fell to his knees, tears welling up in his eyes. "Shouyo?! What's wrong?" Noya asked as he ran to Hinata's side. "I-It's nothing! I'm just so happy that everyone's okay!" Hinata hiccuped, rubbing his eyes. "It's good to have you back, Shouyo!" Noya smiled as he hugged Hinata. "Awwww!! Group hug!!" Tanaka cooed as everyone piled into the hug. Even Kageyama and Tsukishima were joining in
I finally have a place to call home...a family to call my own.

"So Hinata, what were you doing that caused you to be under a pile of rubble?" Suga asked while he and Yamaguchi were tending to his scratches and wounds. "I was looking for some soap so I could clean up a little. It had started raining about 5 minutes after I went in. All of a sudden, the building collapses on me before I could get out." Hinata sighed. "Yeah, we started researching on everything that was happening ever since the world turned upside down. We have signs of radiation and also, we have acid rain." Yamaguchi explained, a small frown on his face. "What?!" Hinata yelled, disbelief playing on his features. "Yeah, I know right? But the radiation is different from the usual type of radiation." Suga explained. "Me and Tsukki did some more research on that, actually. The radiation is still the same, yet different. It still has it's the same side-affects, radiation cancer and etc. But with this radiation, it also works on dead human tissue." Yamaguchi said, his head turned down. "Wait, are you saying what I think you're saying?" Suga asked, eyes practically bulging out of his head. "Yeah, what do you mean by that?" Hinata asked, his curiosity piqued. "It means we may be also dealing with.....zombies." Yamaguchi said. "What?!" Suga and Hinata yelled. "It's a tested thesis, but it's not 100% sure. We just need to make sure that we keep tabs, just to play it safe." Yamaguchi explained. Just as Hinata was about to ask Yamaguchi something, Tsukishima walked in. "Daichi-san said to hurry, he already cooked." Tsukishima said, a bored tone underlying his voice. "Okay, Tsukki. Thank you!" Yamaguchi smiled. "N-No problem. Just hurry up." Tsukishima said, a soft pink blush tinting his cheeks. "Oh, Tsukki? Do you have the research papers?" Yamaguchi asked, slowly rising to his feet. "Yeah, and I still have the documents on the computer. Do you want to check the radiation levels again?" Tsukishima asked. "I want to start the dead human tissue research project. If we come up positive on the tissue project, we'll need to try and find a cure for it as soon as possible." Yamaguchi replied, a determined gleam in his brown irises. "Okay. When do you want to check for a body?" Tsukishima asked, looking over at Hinata only to see a face of pure disgust. "Let's start tomorrow. There's a nearby cemetery, we can start there." Yamaguchi replied, smiling at Tsukishima. "Okay. Would you like to come along?" Tsukishima asked, glancing over at Hinata and Suga. "I'll go with you. You're probably gonna need an extra set of hands to carry the body to the lab." Suga volunteered as stood to his feet. "Thank you, Suga-senpai!" Yamaguchi smiled. "Would you mind if I helped out?" Hinata asked quietly. "You have to rest, Hinata. Just rest for today, and then tomorrow morning, you can help if you feel okay." Suga said, laying a comforting hand on Hinata's shoulder. "Okay. I wish you luck tomorrow. And please, be careful." Hinata said, a smile on his face. "T-Thank you, Hinata." Yamaguchi thanked. "Don't overdo it, Hinata. You still have to help us, including Kageyama." Tsukishima said, turning his back to the orange-haired first year. "Oh? No snappy or snarky remark?" Hinata giggled. "I'm trying to be nice, don't test me." Tsukishima said, turning around and looking Hinata dead in the eye. "Well, okay then. Thank you, Tsukishima." Hinata said.
"You're welcome, Chibi-kun." Tsukishima smirked.
